Subject: [PATCH] [v3] ieee802154: ca8210: Fix a potential UAF in ca8210_probe

If of_clk_add_provider() fails in ca8210_register_ext_clock(),
it calls clk_unregister() to release priv->clk and returns an
error. However, the caller ca8210_probe() then calls ca8210_remove(),
where priv->clk is freed again in ca8210_unregister_ext_clock(). In
this case, a use-after-free may happen in the second time we call
clk_unregister().

Fix this by removing the first clk_unregister(). Also, priv->clk could
be an error code on failure of clk_register_fixed_rate(). Use
IS_ERR_OR_NULL to catch this case in ca8210_unregister_ext_clock().

Fixes: ded845a781a5 ("ieee802154: Add CA8210 IEEE 802.15.4 device driver")
Signed-off-by: Dinghao Liu <[email protected]>

Changelog:

v2: -Remove the first clk_unregister() instead of nulling priv->clk.

v3: -Simplify ca8210_register_ext_clock().
-Add a ';' after return in ca8210_unregister_ext_clock().

Please take care of this now unused variable after your re-factor.
With this fixed and send out as v4 I am happy to get this applied to the
wpan tree.
